Transcriptional Profiling of Staphylococcus aureus During Growth in 2 M NaCl Leads to Clarification of Physiological Roles for Kdp and Ktr K <sup>+</sup> Uptake Systems
21 Aug 2013
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Staphylococcus aureus exhibits an unusually high level of osmotolerance and Na(+) tolerance, properties that support survival in various host niches and in preserved foods. The genetic basis of these traits is not well understood. We compared the transcriptional profiles of S. aureus grown in complex medium with and without 2 M NaCl. The stimulon for growth in high-osmolality media and Na(+) included...
